1 Predicting the Rock Cycle

2 Beginning With Metamorphic Rock Metamorphic Rock (formed under great heat & pressure) Igneous Rock Sedimentary Rock May be melted to reform magma The magma may cool Rock may weather & erode; sediments form Sediments fall into layers

3 Beginning With Sedimentary Rock Sedimentary Rock (formed when layers of sediment are cemented together) Igneous Rock Sedimentary Rock May be melted to reform magma The magma may cool Rock may weather & erode; sediments form Sediments fall into layers Layers may be crushed together with heat & pressure Metamorphic Rock

4 Beginning With Igneous Rock Igneous Rock (formed when magma & lava cools & crystallizes) Igneous Rock Sedimentary Rock May be melted to reform magma The magma may cool Rock may weather & erode; sediments form Sediments fall into layers May be crushed together with heat & pressure Metamorphic Rock
